What season is spinach a vegetable?

Spinach is divided into spring spinach, summer spinach and winter spinach.

The main results are as follows: 1. Spring spinach can begin to sow when the temperature rises above 5 °C after the beginning of spring. March is the suitable sowing time. Summer spinach is sown in May-July, autumn spinach is sown in August-September, and overwintering spinach is sown in mid-October to early November.

2. Autumn sowing and overwintering seed collection: the Yangtze River Basin is usually sown in the first and middle of November.

The seeds overwintered in 5-7 true leaves, and in the following spring, the bolting blossoms and bear fruit. The seeds collected by this method have high grain yield and are mainly used to reproduce the original seed.

2. The method of sowing and collecting seeds in winter: (adopted in the north)

The seeds overwintered in the soil and could emerge one after another at the beginning of March next year without germination in the same year (not before sowing). By using this method, the seed yield is low, but the occupation time is short.

3. Spring sowing seed collection method: sowing seeds in March and harvesting seeds in the same year, the seeds collected by this method are small and the yield is low (spinach varieties with weak cold resistance and no overwintering can be collected by this method).
